Ok, what's the AGP mode set on the BIOS?? If it is auto, try setting it to the lowest possible sped (something like 2x or 4x)... I had a similar problem using a Radeon 9200 on an A8V; graphic mode would cause problems when the AGP mode was automatically set by the BIOS. 4x works like a charm :P I am still looking for an explanation on the cause of this problem...
